Just watched the WWF vs The Alliance main event of Survivor Series 2001............what a match! you have to laugh at the Rock at the way he oversells every hit/move done to him! also lots of finishers executed on the wrestler who usually does it awesome! and shane o'mac breaking up every pin attempt early on and cowardly sliding out the ring lmao .................. my only criticism is the lack of proper wcw wrestlers in the match (no DDP, Goldberg, Kidman.............oh I can dream)

If that match had a team consisting of any combo of Hogan/Nash/Hall/DDP/Booker/Goldberg/Steiner/Luger/Sting it would've been an amazing match to watch. It was still a good match but that whole storyline was retarded.

Btw, did you know WWF had talks with Scott Steiner going back as far as late 2001? Steiner had a pretty severe ankle injury but he was having talks back then already to come in. The plan was for him to be apart of the NWO invasion with Hogan/Hall/Nash.
They didn't want formal contract negotiations until Steiner was fully healed but they had enough time in their mind. He would've been out until November 2001 or something like that, but wasn't needed until February 2002 and even then he wouldn't have to wrestle yet. Obviously that plan fell through and he ended up signing in late 2002 to start his lackluster run.

^ Not really that relevant but I thought it was really interesting that Steiner was considered for a part in the NWO storyline.

I remember reading that back then as well. Steiner had a very forgettable run in the WWE...back in the early 2000's I'm excited 2 more days from the RR can't wait for the RR match

Steiner vs HHH for either the WHC or WWE title (I forget the ppv) was painful, Steiner just $#@!d on suplexes, match ended in a DQ and Scott OTT choking trips with his sledge hammer

also XMW - yeah weird storyline but I went into watching the match not remembering the build up, so I just found the match ace, didn't think too hard watching it that way.....just.nostalg'ing at a great time for WW(F)

Thanks for watching it guys.
In terms of quality, I'd say it's definitely the best replica belt out on the market, but I still hold the Big Eagle dearer to my heart (as gay as that sounds) just because it's such a bad ass looking belt!

As regards to the new WWE Championship, I read on Tuesday that they now plan to introduce it just before mid-year this year, but it's highly likely that it won't be CM Punk bringing it on. I can guarantee that it's going to be Cena.
Punk said about bringing it in before he beat Cena at Money In The Bank two years ago. He's been chasing it up since he's had it, but I bet that they'll let Cena bring it in so then it looks like he's all for not having a title that's specific to him. He'll steal all the thunder yet again! But above all, if Punk brings it in, mostly mature (age, not in mind specifically) fans will buy it. But if Cena brings it in, everyone and ALL the kids will want to buy it, and that'll suit the company very well.

For me i think its hardly worth it, nobody who is in the special apperance royal rumbles never come's back for good! it just a 1 night thing, an there for never wins the RR! only way to enjoy special comebacks is for someone who is not old or retired ect ect then comeback to win the PPV out of the blue.

Ken Shamrock would be amazing. He was one of my favorites in the AE.
Another fun fact that might be irrelevant; Goldberg was based off of Ken Shamrock and not Steve Austin as alot of people tend to think. Bischoff wanted to show WWF how to create and book a shoot fighter. (not that Goldberg completely turned out that way but you can definitely see some of it implemented in his character)

Btw I'm expecting Road Dogg and Billy Gunn to make an appearance in the Rumble tomorrow.
Some rumor sites are saying Carlito and Shelton Benjamin might appear, they have local bookings and are on good terms with WWE. Though thinking about that, I really thought Benjamin had a contract with Ring Of Honor which would prevent him from appearing for WWE..
